How many nights should I spend in Athens
Posted by kjntgr on 1/2/18 at 11:49 pm00
So I have booked flights for Italy and Greece in May
My flight back to the US leaves out of Athens on a Monday afternoon
Question: how many days/nights should I dedicate to Athens?
I’ll be flying from Naples ITALY
Should I fly to Athens on Friday (giving me 3 nights) or maybe an early morning flight on Saturday giving me a full day and a half to see Athens?
Also, what part of the city should I stay?
Thanks

I did 3 before going to Crete. Keep in mind many things (shops and restaurants) are closed Sundays.
I stayed in Plaka at AthensWAS. It was on a pedestrian street and very central. I suggest that area or near Syntagma Square.

Personally I thought a day and a half was plenty. Depends on how long you like to stare and read in a museum, how long you want to just hang out at the sites you’ll visit and where you are staying. Almost everything is Athens is super close together. Not like Rome at all.

He’s flying directly there from Naples. Athens seems to be his only stop.

That could change
What are other good options?
SANTORINI?

I mean it’s not the greatest place, but I don’t think it would kill you if you stayed there 3 days instead of 2

I just did a quick google flight search and one way flights into Crete, Mykonos, Naxos are all over 800
Is there a cheaper way to get there?
Boat?

multiple people to not spend more than a day and a half in Athens as it is kind of shitty.
I loved Athens. I expected it to be dirty, and, well, "shitty," and it wasn't at all in my experience.

Ha, no they aren't
You can get flights to most of the islands from Athens for less than 100 on multiple airlines, like RyanAir or Olympic. Are you using Google flights?
But yes, you can take a ferry for much cheaper it just takes longer. You can take a ferry from Athens to Naxos for like 60 bucks I think. Takes about 3.5 hours. I think Mykonos is like 4.5 hours, something like that.
